August Ghana Crafts tour 2010

July 30th to August 16th I will lead a craft tour taking a look at the Ashanti lost wax brass casting,  the Kente weavers, beadmakers, carvers and more.

Too late to join that, but I will be doing individual tours up to the end of August - including setting up volunteer placements for fashion and jewellery designers to work with the beadmakers.



Cycle across lake Volta

See the countryside, get fit, and have the holiday of a lifetime in August 2010

I trialled this route  in August 2007 and it was fantastic - remote, great scenery, very varied cycling with no cars. Your chance to cycle across the world's biggest manmade lake! Ok, we take a couple of ferries to help.
